Creative Director, Ethan Tobman about working on The Eras Tour

"The most logistical challenging and emotionally satisfying journey of my life"

[taylorswift]

When I was writing the Fortnight music video, I wanted to show you the worlds I saw in my head that served as the backdrop for making this music.  Pretty much everything in it is a metaphor or a reference to one corner of the album or another. For me, this video turned out to be the perfect visual representation of this record and the stories I tell in it. Post Malone blew me away on set as our tortured tragic hero and I’m so grateful to him for everything he put into this collaboration. I’m still laughing from getting to work with the coolest guys on earth, Ethan Hawke and Josh Charles (tortured poets, meet your colleagues from down the hall, the dead poets). I still can’t believe I get to work with the unfathomably brilliant Rodrigo Prieto on cinematography and my team of dream collaborators: Ethan Tobman (production design), Chancler Haynes (editor), Anthony Dimino (1st AD), Jil Hardin (producer) and Dom Thomas (executive producer). Parliament aced the VFX as always. Joseph Cassell, Lorrie Turk and Jemma Muradian made these tortured looks come to life. The entire crew made this a dream to shoot. Thank you to everyone involved and everyone who has watched it!! https://taylor.lnk.to/FortnightMV

Taylor worked with Ethan Tobman who mainly designs movie/music video sets and I believe this was Ethan's first time designing a tour.

Cool, thanks for the info. I remember seeing people mention his name now. Maybe she just fancied a change - similar to changing choreographer. We all know she loves to challenge herself and maybe changing some of the collaborators she's worked with for a long time helped her push for an even better tour.

Jacob Tremblay and Brie Larson in Room (Lenny Abrahamson, 2015)

Cast: Brie Larson, Jacob Tremblay, Sean Bridgers, Wendy Crewson, Matt Gordon, Amanda Brugel, Joe Pingue, Tom McCamus, Joan Allen, William H. Macy. Screenplay: Emma Donoghue, based on her novel. Cinematography: Danny Cohen. Production design: Ethan Tobman. Film editing: Nathan Nugent. Music: Stephen Rennicks. 

As emotionally affecting as Room is, and as brilliant as the performances of Oscar-winner Brie Larson and the equally worthy Jacob Tremblay are, the film left me dissatisfied. The premise is an intriguing one: Joy (Larson) was abducted at the age of 17 by a man (Sean Bridgers) who locked her in a shed, where she gave birth to Jack (Tremblay), who has just turned 5 when the film begins. Left alone together for all this time, with only periodic visits by the captor for sex and to bring supplies, mother and son have bonded uniquely. She has allowed Jack to believe that the shed, which they call "Room," is the only reality -- even the people they see on the television set the captor has supplied are just colorful shapes; they are "TV." The sky they can see through Room's one window, a skylight, is "outer space." The only other entity Jack knows about is "Old Nick," the captor, and Joy keeps the two of them separated as much as possible, shutting Jack in the closet when the man visits. We are in Plato's Cave here, and to follow up on that fable, which is beautifully established in the first part of the film, we need an awakening to reality that is both dramatically and thematically powerful. We get a good start on that when Joy, thinking that Jack is old enough for the truth, begins to break down the myth of Room and suggest to him that there is in fact a world outside. Jack responds with something like the Kübler-Ross stages of grief: He denies what she is telling him, grows angry and depressed, but finally accepts it as truth, which then allows Joy to enlist Jack in an attempt to escape. Unfortunately, after the excitingly suspenseful escape succeeds, the film begins to disintegrate into an often sketchy and unconvincing tale of recovery, and concludes with a tenuous "happy ending." Jack, a doctor tells Joy, is still "plastic," a word that Jack overhears and indignantly rejects: He's real, not plastic. But Joy sinks into a deep depression, partly aided by the fact that the world is going to test the bonds she has formed with Jack, and by the fact that things are not what they were before her abduction. Her parents, for example, have divorced and her mother (Joan Allen) has remarried. Her father (William H. Macy) has moved far away and can't bring himself to accept Jack as his grandson. She and Jack move in with her mother, Nancy, and stepfather, Leo (Tom McCamus), but the tensions of the household grow as they are besieged by reporters, and when an interviewer awakens feelings of guilt and responsibility she has repressed, Joy attempts suicide and is hospitalized. The problem with this part of the film is that there are no easy solutions to the crisis it has created. Moreover, we don't know enough about the characters it introduces to understand their behavior: Why, for example, is it so hard for Joy's father to accept Jack as his grandson? As brilliant an actress as Joan Allen is, she doesn't quite make the loving, gentle grandmother much more than a stereotype. How much hope can we hold out for Joy's full recovery and Jack's successful integration into a world he had previously never envisioned? I haven't read Emma Donoghue's novel, so it's possible that this part of the story is better developed and the characters are more plausible on the page than they are on the screen, although Donoghue also wrote the screenplay. There is, however, a scene at the end, in which Joy and Jack return to Room, now about to be demolished, that provides a kind of closure to the film that's satisfying artistically -- if not psychologically.

I want to say a massive thank you to my main team in putting this whole thing together: Jil Hardin, our producer, worked tirelessly and truly made me feel like I could do this. Joe ‘Oz’ Osborne, our excellent AD, and I have worked together for years and he’s the coolest. Rodrigo Prieto, our DP/cinematographer, is absolutely brilliant and down to earth and hilarious. Ethan Tobman created all those sets. Like, that wasn’t a real yacht. That’s how good he is. 🤯👏 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpl0_ZOt4_h/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Beware all foodies out there, this movie will take you on a roller coaster ride. It’s a middle-finger to all presumptuous foodies/influencers, billionairs, food critics etc. If you haven’t seen it yet, it’s a must! Some of the best British actors gathered in the same place. Ralph Fiennes is always great to watch, and Anya Taylor-Joy is getting better and better. It’s through her character Margot we’re having this, not so pleasant, experience. In the words of Chef Slowik at the remote exclusive restaurant Hawthorne - ‘Fat, salt, sugar, protein, bacteria, fungi, various plants and animals, and at times entire ecosystems. But I have to beg of you one thing - do not eat. Taste, savour, relish, consider a morsel you placed inside your mouth. Be mindful, but do not eat. Our menu is to presious for that.’ I read an interesting interview with the production designer Ethan Tobman. He took inspiration from a dinner he had at Noma in Copenhagen on Christmas Eve 2017, so the feeling of the movie should be a Nordic restaurant. (Please take a moment to appreciate the door). He took help from Chef Dominique Crenn in San Francisco who consulted on the movie. She’s the first (and only) female chef in the U.S. to be awarded three Michelin stars. A word of warning S’mores will not be the same after this. . . #themenu #food #foodofinstagram #foodie #noma #movie #moviesuggestions #december #ralphfiennes #anyataylorjoy #janetmcteer #dinner #dinnerinstyle #taste #eat #inspiration #domeniquecrenn #chef https://www.instagram.com/p/CmG7XfaoznT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Beyonce "Formation”

Those New Orleans floodwaters may have receeded, but there's still anger and style a'plenty left behind, especially when Beyoncé busts loose with a surprise, yet unsurprisingly strong video that reconnects her with her roots.
